Allow both http and https with Traefik on Docker - docker

Question

I am using Traefik in my VPS to route the traffic to my websites, after hours of messing around with it I finally managed to get it working with https using Le's Encrypt.
Now, one thing that I need to do is be able to also access my website via plain http as this is a hobby project for older browsers and the only reason I added tls is because Firefox doesn't like my website without it.
The problem is that, with my current configuration, I can access my website via https normally but when I try it with plain http I get a 404 error.
Here's what my config on docker-compose looks like:
version: "3"
services:
traefik:
image: "traefik:v2.5"
container_name: "traefik"
command:
#- "--log.level=DEBUG"
- "--api.insecure=true"
- "--providers.docker=true"
- "--providers.docker.exposedbydefault=false"
- "--entrypoints.web.address=:80"
- "--entrypoints.websecure.address=:443"
- "--certificatesresolvers.teeresolver.acme.tlschallenge=true"
- "--certificatesresolvers.teeresolver.acme.email=me#gmail.com"
- "--certificatesresolvers.teeresolver.acme.storage=/letsencrypt/acme.json"
ports:
- "443:443"
- "80:80"
- "8080:8080"
volumes:
- "./letsencrypt:/letsencrypt"
- "/var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock:ro"
networks:
- mywebsite
# [...]
mywebsite:
image: my-web-site/site
build:
context: ~/mywebsite-runner/_work/my-web-site-php/my-web-site-php
dockerfile: Dockerfile
volumes:
- ./tee-downloads:/var/www/build/downloads
- ./tee-contents:/var/www/build/contents
ports:
- "0.0.0.0:8001:80"
labels:
- "traefik.enable=true"
- "traefik.http.routers.themywebsite.rule=Host(`mywebsite.com`, `www.mywebsite.com`)"
- "traefik.http.routers.themywebsite.entrypoints=websecure,web"
- "traefik.http.routers.themywebsite.tls.certresolver=teeresolver"
networks:
- mywebsite
networks:
mywebsite:
I have been searching for a solution for hours but the only things I can find on google are configs to redirect http to https, which I can't do.
Does anyone know how to do that?
Thanks in advance for the help.

Answer 1

In traefik , each router defines a set of policies to apply depending of rules and entrypoints.
If you want 2 policies, one for http and one for https, you need to define 2 traefik routers :
mywebsite:
...
labels:
- "traefik.enable=true"
- "traefik.http.routers.themywebsite.entrypoints=websecure"
- "traefik.http.routers.themywebsite.tls.certresolver=teeresolver"
- "traefik.http.routers.themywebsite.rule=Host(`mywebsite.com`, `www.mywebsite.com`)"
- "traefik.http.routers.httpwebsite.entrypoints=web"
- "traefik.http.routers.httpwebsite.rule=Host(`mywebsite.com`, `www.mywebsite.com`)"
One called themywebsite
Another one called httpwebsite
As a result, you do not use a certresolver for httpwebsite router.
